Hi,

There are 500 similar name jobs in the Spool(SDSF). One of the job has a string called "C=001". My question is with out browsing through all jobs how can I find which job/jobid has this string.

Can anybody help me out on this!!

Thanks,
Siva

If that string appears somewhere on the SDSF panel, it can be easily found by using the FILTER command:

Hi Siva,

Can you tell where this string is? is it in the JCL, somewhere in the JOB card, or is it just in an output listing (printed by DISPLAY, for example)?

Hi Marso,

The string is not in the JCL/jobcard, it is in the output listing as you mentioned
ex: as you said the display statement printed from the program.
(one of the sysout/reports printed in the spool may contain this string).

hope this makes clear...if not I can send you the spool job output with an example

Thanks,
Siva

You can use REXX to issue SDSF commands - Write each output dataset to a temporary dataset and look for the string in this temporary dataset.
